ENGINE PERFORMANCE 2022 Yamaha WR450F

A lighter, more compact cylinder head  runs a higher compression ratio at 13:1. A forged piston and specialized ECU settings work together to give the WR450F stronger, longer pulling power with excellent controllability.

ADVANCED CHASSIS 2022 Yamaha WR450F

Yamaha’s bilateral beam aluminum frame is derived from the YZ450F to centralize mass and provide an ideal balance between cornering feel and straight-line confidence. Rigidity balance is optimized through its top triple clamp and front wheel axle and bar mounts to improve front-end feeling.

BUILT FOR ENDURO ACTION 2022 Yamaha WR450F

Specific ignition and fuel injection maps are optimized for enduro riding and racing, featuring longer and stronger pulling power with increased controllability. The chassis has been tuned for enduro riding by using WR-specific engine mounts. An 18-inch rear wheel and tires, large 7.9-litre fuel tank, radiator fan, sealed O-ring chain, steel rear sprocket and a high-mounted aluminum side stand are additionally designed specifically for the rigours of the enduro environment.

    Engine Tuned for Enduro
    WR450F-specfic ignition and fuel injection maps are optimized for enduro riding and racing featuring longer and stronger pulling power with increased controllability.

    Unique Intake and Exhaust Systems
    The WR450F features a two-piece air filter that works in conjunction with the tuned intake tract length and a WR-specific muffler to boost the linear feeling of traction and drive. The WR450F muffler is completely mechanical, eliminating the need to repack.

    High-Capacity Radiator
    The WR450F uses a large radiator with excellent cooling capacity shared with the YZ450F motocrosser, complete with a cooling fan for consistent performance during the toughest enduro rides.

    Electric Starter System
    The WR450F features a compact electric starter system to simplify restarts on the trail and add convenience everywhere else.

    Advanced Fuel Injection
    The engine breathes through a 44 mm Mikuni throttle body fed by a high-pressure electric pump to ensure optimum fuel atomization and power for a wide range of riding elevations and conditions.

    Robust Transmission and Clutch
    The WR450F’s wide-ratio 5-speed transmission provides the optimized gear for tight technical terrain as well as wide-open fire roads. The clutch system has a light pull with specific heat-resistant friction plates for tough enduro competition.

CHASSIS/SUSPENSION

  • YZ450FX-Derived Bilateral Beam Frame
    Yamaha’s refined aluminum frame provides high performance on technical, aggressive terrain sections as well as comfort for those long days in the saddle. Frame spars and engine mounts have been developed alongside the YZ450FX cross country racer to centralize mass for the best possible balance of bump absorption, stiffness and lightweight feeling.

    Compact Body and Seat Design
    The WR450F features stylish bodywork from tip to tail, including a large 7.9-litre, mass-centralized fuel tank. The body design is narrow for more comfortable knee grip and control feeling while the seat gives the rider additional room to move aboard the machine. Even the rear fender is designed for added rigidity to make moving the machine easier.

    Class-Leading Suspension
    The WR450F’s industry-leading, fully adjustable KYB coil spring-type fork with speed sensitive damping provides exceptional balance between handling and bump absorption. Settings are specifically tuned for enduro and to match the new frame.

    Enduro Wheels and Tires
    The WR450F features an 18-inch rear wheel to help prevent pinch flats and provide additional comfort across rough terrain.

    Compact Headlight Unit
    The WR450F’s headlight fairing and compact taillight unit centralize mass and improve the racy, agile styling of the machine.
